net: set SOCK_RCU_FREE before inserting socket into hashtable

We've started to see the following kernel traces:

__inet_hash can race with lockless (rcu) readers on the other cpus:

  __inet_hash
    __sk_nulls_add_node_rcu
    <- (bpf triggers here)
    sock_set_flag(SOCK_RCU_FREE)

Let's move the SOCK_RCU_FREE part up a bit, before we are inserting
the socket into hashtables. Note, that the race is really harmless;
the bpf callers are handling this situation (where listener socket
doesn't have SOCK_RCU_FREE set) correctly, so the only
annoyance is a WARN_ONCE.

More details from Eric regarding SOCK_RCU_FREE timeline:

Commit 3b24d85 ("tcp/dccp: do not touch listener sk_refcnt under
synflood") added SOCK_RCU_FREE. At that time, the precise location of
sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_RCU_FREE) did not matter, because the thread calling
__inet_hash() owns a reference on sk. SOCK_RCU_FREE was only tested
at dismantle time.

Commit 6acc9b4 ("bpf: Add helper to retrieve socket in BPF")
started checking SOCK_RCU_FREE _after_ the lookup to infer whether
the refcount has been taken care of.

Fixes: 6acc9b4 ("bpf: Add helper to retrieve socket in BPF")
